It is with tremendous grief and sadness that we share the loss of our friend and colleague Cecil Corbin-Mark. Having suffered a stroke, Cecil was hospitalized in critical condition until last night, when he passed on with his family by his side. https://t.co/QpUsUX8mOg
@BasilSeggos you are a lion of an environmentalist. And you are a fine example of what a public servant should be. Thank you for all you do to protect New York's environment and happy birthday.
@realDonaldTrump said maybe we should delay the election on Nov. 3rd 2020. First, I say to @realDonaldTrump this is not Trumpistan its the USA. Second, I know you didn't read the PDB about Putin's bounty for our soldiers, but please read Article 1 Sect. 4 of the Constitution.
@TheRevAl presiding over yet another memorial service for yet another black life taken at the hands of the police. Yet another eulogy for the failed promise of equal justice under the law in America. Systemic racisim must end now. #BlackLivesMatter
@CapehartJ You mean call @realDonaldTrump by his true name. Now you know what would happen if Barr were to call the hiding in the bunker cowardly emperor by his name. He would tell Meadows to tell Barr he is fired.
@AGEllison was the first Muslim in Congress and the first Muslim and African-American to serve as AG for MN. I thank him for filing charges v the other officers. I pray he'll make another historical mark. First prosecutor to get convictions of officers who killed a black man.
The video was clearly enough for the Hennepin County Attorney to arrest officer Chauvin. How does he explain not arresting officers Thao, Kueng and Lane??? I hope the Floyd family doesn't have to wait as long as Ahmaud Arbery's family for all suspects to be arrested.
Probable cause for arrest exists when the facts and circumstances would lead a reasonable person to believe that a suspect has committed, is committing, or is about to commit a crime. Probable cause must come from specific facts, rather than just a hunch or suspicion. The video
of Mr Floyd's death showing officer Chauvin's knee constricting his neck and officers Kueng and Lane pinning his handcuffed body to the ground while officer Thao stood guard looking on is more than enough to make any reasonable person see that the officers committed crimes.

Today thanks to @NYGovCuomo NY became the first state in the nation to require that the makers of menstrual products disclose what is in their products. I'm proud to have worked on this bill.
